About This Item
London: Inter-Art Co. ,. Good with no dust jacket. 1920. Unknown. Soft Cover. Original Vintage Postcard - Highly Un-PC nowadays! The written date on the reverse shows 1920. Number 2518 in this series. The image is of a Pretty Little Black Girl with many bows in her hair with 2 black dolls and a little black boy busy eating a melon, hogging all 3 pieces. The text in blue beneath the image reads - the little girl speaking = " Women and children first, Rastus!". A 'humorous' sentiment very much of the period! . The address and message on the back is in purple pencil, and posted/stamped. Overall a generally clean and tidy card, but with a few light marks/small stain to bottom blank area, and small corner tip rubs, lacking a tiny portion of the bottom right tip (0.01cm) , but an interesting example of the completely oblivious modes of thought of the day to colour, etc. For International buyers, postage paid on postcards will be highly reduced to 'at cost' when the item is processed, but initially your purchase will show the higher 'up to 1 kilo' cost. I will email you the exact cost when ordered, or contact me first please. See images. ; Comique; Oblong 24mo 5" - 6" tall .
